net: veth: Disable netpoll support
The current implementation of netpoll in veth devices leads to suboptimal behavior, as it triggers warnings due to the invocation of __netif_rx() within a softirq context. This is not compliant with expected practices, as __netif_rx() has the following statement: lockdep_assert_once(hardirq_count() | softirq_count()); Given that veth devices typically do not benefit from the functionalities provided by netpoll, Disable netpoll for veth interfaces.
